TLDR? You can skip to the bottom paragraph.
Ok, so, having found myself unable to log in today due to the EU post-maintenance login server phail, and after finding the blue post hinting that Battle.net accounts were unaffected by this... I of course go and make myself a B.net account, and merge my WoW account into said B.net account.
I proceed to login, but nei... apparently my B.net account info is invalid, and my old WoW login tells me to use my new B.net login.
(Gahh!)
So, I attempt to login to the EU forums to join the flood of whiners there, because surely, crashing the EU forums would help speed things along.
But again, my new B.net account is denied, and my old info points to the B.net login.
Digging a little deeper, I find myself unable to login to the EU B.net website, but able to login to the US version.
This was a bit odd, as the fact that I am in Europe was made clear during the account creation, and the WoW account I merged was in fact a EU account.
Now, just out of curiosity (and boredom), I attempt to log into the US forums... and that works!
I can now log into the US forums, but due to the fact my WoW account is marked as EU, the US forums don't allow me to post.
(EU accounts merged into a B.net accounts don't show in the US forums.)
So, it appears, on top of todays EU login server phail, that Blizzard also manage to cause a B.net phail, forcing those of us who actually followed Blizzard's hints and created a B.net account to have to wait till they can
unmerge
our EU WoW accounts from the US B.net accounts that were incorrectly assigned to us.
Good day for Blizzard xD
Not to mention the hordes of raiders currently locked out.

Nothing, really. Just thought I'd share todays tragedy with you guys ^^
(Didn't see any threads here detailing this particular phail)
And you never know if somebody has some helpful info I might have overlooked.

There isn't much to do but wait, this isn't the first occurrence of such an issue.

Well, I went on the official site. I was planning on quitting, well, not paying the subscription as I never play any more.
Tried logging in, error. I'm not with Battle.net
Looks like they'll find another way to suck money out of me...

Your subscription cycle doesn't end today does it? Then it won't cost you anything to quit tomorrow.

I have no idea. I can't see it because it won't let me log in to see the details.

You can call them and quit. You can quit tomorrow and if they charge you, you can contest it. A days login outage isn't going to stop all the other methods of quiting.
